Chapter 250: Kung Fu Superstar
Dashan Beida was a little surprised and said, "What's the matter, boss, are you also interested in this kind of competition?" ”
Tang Ning pretended to be calm and nodded: "It's okay to be idle anyway, it's good to open your eyes." In fact, he understood very well why Oyama Beda asked this, because he had never watched this kind of competition when he was in Japan, and in order to divert his attention, he asked again: "By the way, Oyama, is there another karate master named Yamamoto Okao who is also in Washington?" ”
Oyama Beda shook his head and said, "No, and I have never heard of such a karate master named Yamamoto Okao, where did you hear about it, boss?" ”
In fact, this guy called Yamamoto Okao was seen by Downing when he watched "The Legend of Bruce Lee", and he only remembered it when he recalled the people and things related to Bruce Lee, but he naturally couldn't say this, so he had to say vaguely: "Well, maybe he is not a master, but for a layman like me, he is still quite powerful, I saw it at a dojo in Tokyo." ”
Oyama Beda recalled more seriously, and said: "Impossible, I know all the coaches and masters in the Tokyo Karate Dojo, but there is no such person, and it is impossible for me not to follow you when you go to the dojo, it makes no sense that you have seen it all, and I have not paid attention to it." ”
Tang Ning complained in his heart that it seemed that the TV series was really unreliable, and even such an important role was made up, and on the other hand, he was complaining that Dashan Beida was a dead brain, why did he keep grasping this problem, so he had to wave his hand forcibly: "Okay, okay, you go and help me call Jimmy over, this time I will take him with me." ”
Originally, Jimmy was not interested in this kind of competition at all, but he was dragged over by Downing in no way. Because Tang Ning kept saying that he would take him to see a wonderful game, but unfortunately the process of this game surprised Tang Ning very much, originally he thought that this kind of competition between masters would have to fight three or five hundred rounds, but before three minutes of play, the game was decided.
Jimmy pointed to the field and said to Downing, "Tony, is this what you call a great game?" ”
Downing hadn't spoken yet. Dashan Beida on the side explained for him: "Boss Jimmy, this game is indeed very exciting, you see that Kimura Masahiko's wrist and Bruce Lee's inch fist have been used, Kimura suffers a loss because he is already old, and his body is not as good as before, otherwise it is really difficult to say whether this game will be won or lost." ”
Tang Ning hurriedly said: "Jimmy, you see, this is that you don't know how to do it. There is a saying in China that the insider looks at the doorway, and the layman looks at the strength. A layman like us can't see the essence. ”
Jimmy said angrily, "Since you know that we can't see the essence, why did you come all the way to let me come and watch this game?" ”
Downing explains: "I recently had a new idea. That's the idea of adapting this kind of kung fu into a movie, Jimmy, what do you think about this idea? ”
Jimmy shook his head, "I don't think so. I believe that the vast majority of the audience's appreciation level should be similar to mine, and they can't see the essence of what you say, so I think it's better to shoot a beautiful woman's thigh than this. ”
Tang Ning said a little speechlessly: "When did you say that your taste will improve, it's been so many years." You haven't gotten tired of seeing this woman's thighs? Besides, who told you that the movie was made like this. In the movie, in order to express the effect, it is natural to shoot something fancy. For example, kicking wooden boards, breaking bricks with bare hands, and playing in pairs. ”
Jimmy was shocked and asked, "What?" Break bricks with your bare hands?! How is this possible! ”
Tang Ning casually pointed to the mountain Beida beside him and said: "What is the exaggeration of this, the mountain can do it, don't talk about this, the mountain can fight bulls with bare hands." He once killed several pit bulls with his fists. ”
Jimmy looked at Dashan Beida even more shocked: "No, Dashan, I've known you for so many years, and it's the first time I know that you are so powerful, no wonder Tony has to take you with him no matter what he does." Eh, when are you going to put on a show for me? ”
Tang Ning saw that the field had dispersed, and hurriedly said: "Jimmy, don't worry, there is a chance to perform for you, and you can prepare your own planks and bricks in advance, so as not to say that I cheat." Then he turned his head to Dashan Beida and said, "Dashan, you go and invite this Bruce Lee for me, just say that I want to invite him to dinner, and I have important things to talk to him." ”
At noon the next day, at a high-end steakhouse near the University of Washington, Bruce Lee was invited to Downing's dinner. As soon as he entered the room, he bowed respectfully and said, "Hello Mr. Tangning! Hello Mr. DuPont! Thank you for your hospitality today! ”
Tang Ning stood up and shook hands with him and said, "Mr. Li, don't be so polite, please take a seat." ”
After Bruce Lee sat down and Dashan Beida filled several people with wine, Tang Ning said: "I watched the match between Mr. Li and Master Kimura yesterday, it really opened our eyes, I heard that Mr. Li had made movies in Hong Kong before coming to Washington, didn't he?" ”
Bruce Lee nodded and replied: "That's right, I have filmed "Thin Road Xiang", "The Beginning of Man", and "The Lonely Hung of the Sea of People". ”
Tang Ning sighed, then pointed at Jimmy and said, "This Mr. Dupont is the owner of Jimmy Studios in Hollywood, I wonder if Mr. Li has heard of it?" ”
Bruce Lee replied with a slightly respectful gaze: "I like Mr. Dupont's "Dr. 007" and "King Kong vs. Godzilla" very much, especially 007, which is so good-looking. ”
Tang Ning smiled: "Then is Mr. Li interested in joining Jimmy Film and Television and acting in movies?" ”
Bruce Lee thought for a while, and then said with some hesitation: "This, Hollywood never seems to use Chinese actors, and my acting style is not very suitable for this kind of drama of 007." ”
Tang Ning waved his hand and explained: "Of course you are not suitable for the drama of 007, but we invite you to play another kind of drama, a kind of drama that is completely tailored for you, and what you want to highlight is your kung fu, of course, in order to express the effect, there must be some exaggeration and performance, you can understand this, right?" ”
